G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Romans 3:1-31

Paul here turned to a brief discussion of certain objections. First, "What advantage, then, hath the Jew?" He replied, "Much, every way." He then mentioned only one, which he spoke of as being "first of all," meaning of supreme importance, "that they were entrusted with the oracles of God." Therein lay the supreme advantage of the Jew. Then arises a new question. If man's faith fails, will God be unfaithful? To this the apostle replied that is it impossible for God to be unfaithful. The... read more

Wells of Living Water Commentary - Romans 3:9-25

Sin and Salvation Romans 3:9-25 INTRODUCTORY WORDS The Word of God never belittles sin. Sin, to God, is heinous. It is black, without one ray of white. Sin to God is exceeding sinful. There is nothing in it but sorrow and shame and suffering. There are some who try to excuse their sin, inasmuch as they were born in sin, and therefore inherited a sinful nature. This is wrong. We dare have no pity toward that which would wreck and ruin us. Sin may be painted in the brightest of colors; it may... read more

Wells of Living Water Commentary - Romans 3:19-31

Law and Grace Romans 3:19-31 INTRODUCTORY WORDS 1. The meaning and scope of the Law. Law is a word filled with glory, but wholly foreign to Grace. Law is the measure of the holy requirements of a righteous and just God. We are speaking of the Laws written on two tables of stone by the finger of God; and also of the Laws which God has given in His Word. When God gave the Law, He gave it as an expression of the requirements of His inherent holiness; and not as commandments lowered in their... read more

James Nisbet's Church Pulpit Commentary - Romans 3:24

ATONEMENT‘Being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus.’ Romans 3:24 This verse and those which follow it are a full statement of the way of salvation. I. The source of salvation.—Our salvation is to be attributed not to works of righteousness we have done, but to the free, undeserved grace of God. There is grace—( a) In the provision made for our salvation ( 2 Timothy 1:9).( b) Grace in its application ( Ephesians 2:8; Romans 4:4), first, in our... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 3:21-31

God Has Provided A Way By Which Men Can Be Accounted As In The Right Before God (3:21-4:25). Paul has spent a considerable time, from Romans 1:18 onwards, in demonstrating that all are under sin (weighed down under it and condemned by it). And he has shown that this includes the common herd of idolaters (Romans 1:18-27); the generality of people (Romans 1:28-32); those who for one reason or another see themselves as above the norm (philosophers, judges, Rabbis, Jews - Romans 2:1-16); and... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 3:23

‘For all have sinned, and are falling short of the glory of God,’ The reason why this righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ is necessary is now given. It is because, as had been demonstrated in Romans 1:18 to Romans 3:20, all have sinned and are continually revealing it by falling short of the glory of God. Note the change of tense. All ‘have sinned’ (compare Romans 5:12), thus being in a state of sin, and they are now continually falling short of His glory. Here the ‘all’ is... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 3:24

‘Being justified (accounted as in the right) freely by his grace through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus,’ But on receiving the righteousness of God which is through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe (Romans 3:22), any one of the ‘all’ who have been demonstrated as sinful (Romans 3:23), is immediately ‘reckoned as righteous’ before the Judge of all men. And this is through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus, something which is available freely, at no cost, as a result of... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 3:21-31

Romans 3:21-Obadiah : . A new chapter opens in human history— the achievement of Redemption in Christ Jesus. Romans 3:21 . In the desperation to which man’ s sin, brought home to him by the Law, has reduced him, “ a manifestation has been made of God’ s righteousness ( Romans 1:17 *) for salvation outside of law,” yet “ attested by law and prophets” (see, e.g., Romans 4:3, Romans 1:17). The Jew regarded Moses’ law as a complete revelation of God’ s ways. Romans 3:22 a . It is a “... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Romans 3:23

For all have sinned: q.d. No wonder there is no difference, when both the one and the other have the guilt of Adam’s transgression imputed to them, and have original corruption inherent in them, from whence proceed very many actual transgressions. And come short of the glory of God; i.e. of the glorious image of God, in which man was at first created; or, of communion with God, in which the glory of a rational creature doth consist; or rather, of the eternal glory, which they come short of, as... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Romans 3:24

Being justified freely by his grace; i.e. Being in this case, they can by no means be acquitted and freed from the accusation and condemnation of the law, but in the way and manner that follows. He mentions the great moving cause of justification first, (which doth comprehend also the principal efficient), that it is without any cause or merit in us; and by the free favour of God to undeserving, ill-deserving creatures, Ephesians 1:6,Ephesians 1:7; Ephesians 2:8; Titus 3:7. Through the... read more
